HARDWARE INSTALLATION

„ Power off and open up the computer
taking the usual anti-static
precautions.
„ Please note: The boards are keyed so
that they can only be fitted into a slot
in which they will work.
Do not modify the FireBird board or
the motherboard in an attempt to
override the keying as this could result
in serious damage.
„ For full performance, boards with a
part number including 'PE8' must
be fitted in a slot that supports
PCI Express at x8 width; similarly
those including 'PE4' must use a
slot supporting x4. Boards with a
6-way PEG Cable Connector
FireBird Frame Grabbers – Quickstart Guide v2.4
part number including '3PE' must
be fitted in a slot that supports PCI
Express at Gen 3 speeds; similarly
those including '2PE' must use a slot
supporting Gen 2 speeds. Check your
computer documentation for details
of the PCI Express connectors.
„ CoaXPress Boards Only: For
multichannel CoaXPress boards,
and the 1XCXP6-2PE8 board, if the
board will be used to power cameras
through the CoaXPress cables using
PoCXP then the auxiliary power
connector J13 must be connected
to the computer power supply. The
correct power supply cable is one
8-way PEG Cable Connector
intended for PCI Express Graphics
(PEG) cards, and may have 6 or 8
ways. To distinguish it from other
similar connectors in the computer,
the connector should be black and
may be marked 'PCI-E' or 'PEG' . Similar
connectors that are not PEG should be
white. However this is often not the
case, so the cables should be carefully
checked for the pattern of squares
and chamfers on the plastic body of
the connector at the end of the cable.
See the images below.
Also, the wires should be black on
the side with the connector clip, and
colored (often yellow or blue) on the
other side.
6-way Cable Alignment
If the connector does not match
those shown above, DO NOT
attempt to force it into FireBird as
this could result in serious damage.
If a 6 way connector is plugged into
FireBird, it should be aligned at the
upper 6 ways of the 8 way FireBird
connector as shown below.
PEG cable splitters, PEG to SATA
adapters and PEG to 'Molex' adapters
are available from Active Silicon and
are included in the optional cable
starter kit.
„ Close and power on the computer.
